  1. All mammals are warm-blooded. Whales are mammals. Which conclusion is valid?

    Answer: Whales are warm-blooded

    Since all mammals are warm-blooded and whales are mammals, whales must be warm-blooded.

  2. If no A are B, and all C are B, what can be concluded?

    Answer: No C are A

    Since all C are B and no A are B, C and A share no members, so no C are A.

  3. A store sells only red and blue shirts. Every red shirt costs more than every blue shirt. Maya bought the cheapest shirt available. What color is her shirt?

    Answer: Blue

    Since every red shirt costs more than every blue shirt, the cheapest shirt must be blue.

  4. Look at the pattern: 2, 6, 18, 54, ___. What comes next?

    Answer: 162

    Each term is multiplied by 3: 54 × 3 = 162.

  5. Five people stand in a line. Tom is ahead of Sara. Sara is ahead of Lee. Lee is ahead of Pat. Who is last?

    Answer: Pat

    The order is Tom → Sara → Lee → Pat, so Pat is last.

  6. Every time it rains, the grass gets wet. The grass is wet. What can be concluded?

    Answer: It may or may not have rained

    Wet grass is consistent with rain but could have another cause, so rain is not certain.

  7. Which statement is the contrapositive of 'If it is a square, then it has four sides'?

    Answer: If it does not have four sides, then it is not a square

    The contrapositive flips and negates both parts: 'If not four sides, then not a square.'
